I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

This is being reported as the Clinton's refusing to appear before Comer's committee. It is much stronger than that. It's a pretty ballsy challenge to Comer.

@paulbernal.bsky.social I would guess that this consolidation of personal data is one do your most fundamental issues with digital ID. It really is that here that can’t be put back in the bottle.
As immigration raids have swept the country and the US government rapidly merges data from across federal agencies, it’s not just immigrants who have been kidnapped and detained. American citizens have also been caught up.
The DHS Data Grab Is Putting US Citizens at Risk
